UNION, N.J., Aug. 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. (Nasdaq: BBBY) ("Bed Bath" or the "Company") announced today the successful early results and early settlement date of its previously announced cash tender offers to purchase up to $300 million aggregate principal amount (the "Maximum Tender Offer Amount") of its 4.915% Senior Notes due 2034 and its 5.165% Senior Notes due 2044 (collectively, the "Notes"). Based on information received from D.F. King & Co., Inc., the Tender and Information Agent, $479,868,000 in aggregate principal amount of Notes were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 21, 2020 (such time and date, the "Early Tender Deadline"). The Company also announced that it has elected to have an early settlement date for the tender offers, which is currently expected to be on or around August 28, 2020 (the "Early Settlement Date"), for Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline.

The tender offers commenced on August 10, 2020 and are scheduled to expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of the day on September 4, 2020, unless extended, or terminated (such time and date, as the same may be extended or terminated by the Company in its sole discretion with respect to either or both of the series of Notes, the "Expiration Date"). However, because the aggregate principal amount of the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn as of the Early Tender Deadline exceeded the applicable Tender Cap for each series of Notes, no tenders of Notes submitted after the Early Tender Deadline will be accepted for purchase in the tender offers. The terms and conditions of the tender offers remain unchanged, and the tender offers are being made solely pursuant to the terms and conditions, including the Maximum Tender Offer Amount and the Tender Caps, set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated August 10, 2020 (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the "Offer to Purchase").

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the Notes and the tender offers, including the aggregate principal amount of each series of Notes that was validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline:

(1) The "Tender Cap" for each series of Notes is based on the aggregate principal amount of the applicable series of Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) and accepted for purchase by the Company as described in the Offer to Purchase.
(2) The proration factor has been rounded to the nearest hundredth of a percentage point.

The amount of each series of Notes accepted for purchase was determined pursuant to the terms and conditions of the tender offers as set forth in the Offer to Purchase.

Because the principal amount of Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline exceeded the applicable Tender Cap for each series of Notes, the Company will accept such Notes for purchase subject to the Tender Caps and proration factors set forth in the table above. Notes not accepted for purchase will be promptly credited to the account of the registered holder of such Notes with The Depository Trust Company in accordance with the Offer to Purchase.

The deadline to withdraw Notes tendered in the tender offers was 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 21, 2020, and has not been extended. Accordingly, previously tendered Notes may not be withdrawn, subject to applicable law.

The consideration paid in the tender offers for Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline and accepted for purchase will be determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase, and includes an early tender premium of $50 per $1,000 principal amount of such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, from the last interest payment date with respect to such Notes to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date.          

The Company's obligation to accept for payment and to pay for any of the Notes validly tendered in the tender offers is not subject to any minimum principal amount of Notes in the aggregate or of any series being tendered, but is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions described in the Offer to Purchase. The Company reserves the right, subject to applicable law, to amend, extend or terminate either or both of the tender offers at any time in its sole discretion.

Bed Bath has retained J.P. Morgan Securities LLC to act as sole dealer manager for the tender offers. D.F. King & Co., Inc. is the Tender and Information Agent for the tender offers. For additional information regarding the terms of the tender offers, please contact J.P. Morgan Securities LLC collect at (212) 834-2042 or toll-free at (866) 834-4666. Requests for copies of the Offer to Purchase and questions regarding the tendering of Notes may be directed to D.F. King & Co., Inc. at (212) 269-5550 (for banks and brokers) or (800) 714-3311 (all others, toll-free) or email [email protected].

This press release is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer to purchase securities or a solicitation of an offer to sell securities or an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to purchase any securities nor does it constitute an offer or solicitation in any jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation is unlawful.

None of Bed Bath, the Tender and Information Agent, the Dealer Manager or the Trustee (nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or affiliates) makes any recommendation as to whether holders should tender their Notes pursuant to either or both of the tender offers, and no one has been authorized by any of them to make such a recommendation. Holders must make their own decisions as to whether to tender their Notes, and, if so, the principal amount of Notes to tender.
